My little Brayden had to have 8 staples put in his head today! Here's how it went down: Brayden and a neighbor boy that I was watching were playing with this back-stretching machine thing of Tyler's. I caught them doing it, and told them about 3 different times to stop playing with it because someone will get hurt. The reason they can get hurt is because one kid was standing on each side of the machine and the other would let it go and the weight would slam it back down into an upright position. So, the metal bars, where you put your feet, could easily hit somebody on the way back down. And that's exactly what it did. As I went up the stairs after seeing them walk away from the machine after I told them to stop playing with it, Brayden started crying hard! Now, he's a tough kid and doesn't usually cry, so I knew he was really hurt. I went downstairs and saw the blood coming from his head just pouring down his face and went and washed it off so I could see where the cut was. I finally found it and he had a deep 2 inch gash on his head. Tyler wasn't home from work yet so I waited until he got home and then took Brayden to Urgent Care, where he then got staples. Anyways, here are a couple of pictures so you can see the staples (hope you don't have a weak stomach), and then you can see the sad face he was making the whole time at the doctor. Poor guy!
